Leak Repair & Regrouting in South Perth

The riverfront and the streets behind it hold a large share of the older walk-up flats built between the 1960s and 1980s, alongside the towers that have gone up around Mill Point since. In the older buildings, original cement-based grout and hard-set silicone have had thirty or forty years to shrink and craze, and the joints in a shower base are where that shows first.

Tiled balconies over habitable rooms are the other common job here. Where a balcony sits above someone else’s living room rather than over open ground, a failed perimeter seal or cracked grout along a movement joint turns into a stained ceiling downstairs. Strata managers generally want the source traced and fixed properly rather than patched, and most of that work can still be done from the surface.
